Who are they?
Name: Hednesford Town
Nickname: The Pitmen
Founned: 1880
Stadium: Keys Park
Capacity: 6,309 (1,011 seated)

Their season so far:
The Pitmen are 14th in the Southern League, mid-table is more than likely going to be the conclusion at the end of the season for the Staffordshire club. It will be an overall disappointing season for Hednesford, after being in and around the top of the league earlier in the season.

Hednesford have played 32 games thus far in the league. 14 wins, five draws and 13 losses is how their season has panned out with seven games remaining.

In their previous five, The Pitmen have picked up five points out of their last possible 15, the most recent outing resulting in a 1-1 draw away at St. Ives, where Nuneaton lost 0-2 at in November.

Earlier in the campaign, Boro had one of their best performances of the season at Keys Park five weeks ago. A 3-0 Battering was the outcome after goals via Joel Kettle, Jordan Goddard and a free-kick stunner from Luke Benbow.

The man in the dugout:
Danny Glover was a product of the Port Vale academy. The 30-year old played as a striker throughout his career. Before moving into his early management tenure, Glover played for Nantwich Town and the team he currently managers, who play in the Northern and Southern league respectively.

Last time out:
As previously mentioned, The Pitmen came away with a point in their last Southern League encounter. Joe Curtis opened the scoring for Hednesford Town before Danny Glover equalised 13 minutes later in the 79th minute.

St Ives Town: Conway, Jackson, Toseland, Clifton (Dean), Hamblin, Powell, Wilson, Parker, Seymour-Shove, Curtis, Snaith (Patrick).

Hednesford Town: Wycherley, Reid, O’Hanlon, Bailey (Capt), Gatter, Hallahan, Davies, Thompson, Glover, Sweeney, Hodge (Hewlett).

Have we met before:
Nuneaton Borough were phenomenal in their last fixture with Hednesford Town. After the initial encounter was postponed earlier in the season due to the weather, the Tuesday night game concluded a 0-3 win for Jimmy Ginnelly’s boys.
